very simple, made from boiled potatoes, can’t go wrong
Boil the potatoes with their skins on the day before. Peel the potatoes and press them through a potato ricer, then mix in the eggs and seasoning. Add enough breadcrumbs until the batter is no longer sticky. The breadcrumbs shouldn’t be supermarket breadcrumbs; make them yourself or go to a bakery. The batter is best after it has rested for about an hour. Unlike batter made with flour or potato starch, you can prepare this one and let it rest for a while without it absorbing much water. That always takes a lot of stress off me. Form dumplings, press in toasted pieces of bread if you like, and add them to the boiling, but not violently bubbling, water. Turn the heat down and cook the dumplings for about 25 minutes.
